Plastic milling on homemade CNC # CNC1000
I made this CNC machine myself in 2015, videos of the same year. For a long time I was asked to make a video on the assembly of this machine, later my hard drive broke, by some miracle I found some materials on this machine on another medium. After almost 4 years I will publish the materials, as I did with my own hands a CNC machine tool from the available materials.
These were successful doubles, the first attempts to mill plastic on the CNC. Two-way milling cutter for wood, for plastic it is better to use a single-cutter, because plastic melts and sticks to the milling cutter. If plastic chips stick to the mill, then the mill will most likely break or turn black from overheating.

It’s 2024, stores are already selling robotic vacuum cleaners, and you can even buy used ones for a reasonable price. And I still dream of assembling my own robot vacuum cleaner with my own hands.

I thought for a long time to print the case on a 3D printer or to do it manually. It’s easier to print, but I decided to do the first boat with my own hands. I used cardboard as the main material.
